It’s that time of year when the Hubs says stuff like, “I don’t need anything. Don’t spend any money on me.”
Uh-huh. Sure.
Because guess who is grumpy on Christmas morning when he has nothing to open because you took him seriously?
So I tend to get him gadgets because he’s a gadget person. Remember his obsession with the Lightkeeper Pro and the Roomba? And he keeps talking about this thing, which just seems insane to me. I also get him necessities or things we need for the house. He always gets the “family games” too which is weird because he hates to play games. But it’s better than opening socks, right?

Audible Membership - When I first met the Hubs I was convinced he couldn’t read. But then he showed me he could read, he just doesn’t enjoy it. He does like listening, though, and I think listening to audiobooks IS reading (I will not be taking any questions at this time).

Magnetic Wristband - I told you the Hubs loves gadgets. This gadget is perfect and I won’t be in charge of holding all the little screws and shit when he’s putting together stuff.

Wallet - Every year I buy the Hubs a new wallet and every year he returns it. His wallet is older than our marriage. He needs a new wallet. One of these days he’ll keep the wallet.

Crocs - I had to give up Crocs a few years ago because they were making my back hurt, but the Hubs refuses. His current Crocs are in sad shape, so he’s getting new ones this year. He doesn’t wear them day-to-day, but they’re handy when he needs to run to the mailbox or take Stan out real quick.

TENS Unit - The Crocs hurt my back, so the Hubs was like, “You need a TENS unit.” He was right. I’ve used the crap out of the current one we have and it’s time for an upgrade. I’ll wrap it up and give it to him, but really, it’s for me. But it’s a gadget, so it goes on his list.

Grampa’s Weeder - I saw this on TikTok and I had to have it. I mean, the Hubs had to have it. We have a lot of weeds that need pulling and I think he’d be willing to do it if he had a…wait for it…gadget to help him.
Spoiler alert: I already bought it and opened it and it works like a damn dream.

2 Million Dollar Puzzle - During 2020 the Hubs got into puzzles. All that free time and nothing else to do. The rest of us did not like puzzles, but we were nice and helped him find the corners. The kids want to get him this puzzle, because it’s two things he likes: puzzles and the chance to win a lot of money.

Monopoly Deal - Adolpha always wants to play Monopoly but no one wants to commit to a 3-hour ordeal of wheeling and dealing that ends up with someone crying. My friend turned me on to this game and I’m hooked. You can play this game for half an hour and everyone is satisfied. Win-win.

Fitbit - The Hubs needs a new Fitbit. He’s committed to getting his steps in, but they don’t count if the Fitbit isn’t keeping accurate records.

Is it bad I ordered two things on this list for me? (I also have a Roomba obsessed husband.)
Ordered almost everything! You saved Christmas, Jen!
